Description:

This status code, AIC 628.12, indicates that the Armrest Interface Control Unit (AIC) is currently in the process of updating or loading new software. It is important to note that this is a normal programming status, not an error code, and occurs solely during the software update process.

Reaction:

While the software update is underway, no functions will be available via the control unit. The system is designed to temporarily disable functionality to ensure the update process is uninterrupted and successful.

Recommendations:

• No corrective action or diagnosis is required as this is a standard procedure during software updates.
• Ensure that the AIC remains undisturbed during the update process to avoid any data corruption or update failures.
• Monitor the progress of the update to ensure that it completes successfully. If the update process is stalled or fails, refer to the manufacturer’s guidelines for troubleshooting or possibly restarting the update.
• Once the update is complete, perform a system check to ensure all new software functions are operating correctly and the AIC is fully functional.

Note:

Regular software updates are crucial for maintaining the functionality and security of the AIC system. They can introduce new features, improve existing functionalities, and fix known bugs. Always ensure that updates are carried out in accordance with John Deere’s recommended procedures to avoid complications.
